Hey there matthewlsteward,
First of all, What 1) make and model of float tube, 2) material of Bladder: rubber or otherwise 3)warrantee and or customer service?, 4) not so important but which bladder and where is the hole, etc. There's lots of guys (10+ year veteran but not me YET) who have had to patch their tubes and you can bet they know the best stuff to use. They may have something here on this sight.
If your tube is really old, you might consider a new tube (design & materials) that might well be great for both fresh and saltwater if you haven't done so already.
As for the anchor, please check this site first, then the tuber sites, next the kayak sites if you have time. There's posts on how to rig your collapsable anchor so it will never get hung up on a couple of sights, those guys might help. The only stupid questions are the ones not asked!
Regards,
tsurikichi
